Our investment attitude on Stock Trak was to diversify our stocks in various industries; this is to lower our investment risk. Thus, we bought multiple stocks, which included Exxon Mobil Corp., McDonald's Corp., and Home Depot Inc; our goal was to spread out our investments.

Thus, a portfolio that's short term when paired with gasoline was a good idea.
